What is Numerology?

"Numerology" - Noun. (Concise Encyclopedia)

Use of numbers to interpret a person's character or divine the future. It is based on the assertion by Pythagoras that all things can be expressed in numerical terms because they are ultimately reducible to numbers. Using a method analogous to that of the Greek and Hebrew alphabets (in which each letter also represented a number), modern numerology attaches a series of digits to an inquirer's name and uses these, along with the date of birth, to reveal the person's true nature and prospects.

Brief history of Numerology

The roots of numerology can be traced back some 10,000 years to Egypt and Babylonia. Pythagoras, who developed many of the basic fundamentals that form the foundation of modern mathematics, is credited with formally organizing the numerology we use today about 2500 years ago in ancient Greece.

How Numerology Works

Everything in the universe vibrates at its own particular frequency. By finding the vibration rate of any object, you can establish the qualities and energies associated with it. By applying the principles of numerology, by using only a name and birth date as the basic data, you can determine the major frequencies of a person. A numerological analysis of the calculated frequencies or vibrations will provide significant information on a particular person's personality and character.
